The elderly man involved in the car crash that resulted in jail time for GARY COLLINS died Friday, but Collins won't face additional charges. The former TV host wasn't found at fault for the October 23rd collision in the San Fernando Valley. According to police, the other driver, 89-year-old WARREN GATES, caused the accident when he ran a red light. The coroner's office has determined that Gates died because of the crash, but an autopsy will be performed.
Collins was arrested at the scene of the accident when officers smelled alcohol on his breath. He pleaded no contest to two DUI charges last Thursday and was sentenced to four days in jail, four years' probation, community service, fined 500 dollars, and ordered to enroll in an alcohol education program and attend 26 A.A. meetings.
